In Rockefeller’s eyes, the Inhofe Resolution represented yet another Scandinavia, UK and European Sales Manager—Colm Barry, [email protected] all-or-nothing resolution destined to fail.

He also blamed power generators for continuing to Ad Traffic Manager—Erica Freeman, [email protected] take profits on plants rather than upgrading them. Rockefeller said the natural gas industry looks to the future, while the coal industry clings to the past. “It’s not too late for the coal industry to step up and lead by embracing the realities of today and creating a sustainable future,” Rockefeller said. “Discard the scare tactics.

Res. 37) to overturn the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Utility MACT rule, according to the National Mining Association (NMA). Inhofe and other critics say the rule, forcing cuts in air toxics and separate regulations on smog-forming pollutants, would raise power costs, harm the economy and cost jobs by leading to the closure of a substantial number of coal-based power plants. “Today’s regrettable vote locks in higher electricity rates for consumers and businesses for the foreseeable future,” NMA President and CEO Hal Quinn said in a statement following the vote.

  • Competitiveness Analysis of China's Main Coastal Ports
    2019 International Conference on Economic Development and Management Science (EDMS 2019) Competitiveness analysis of China's main coastal ports Yu Zhua, * School of Economics and Management, Nanjing University of Science and Technology, Nanjing 210000, China; [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: China coastal ports above a certain size, competitive power analysis, factor analysis, cluster analysis Abstract: As a big trading power, China's main mode of transportation of international trade goods is sea transportation. Ports play an important role in China's economic development. Therefore, improving the competitiveness of coastal ports is an urgent problem facing the society at present. This paper selects 12 relevant indexes to establish a relatively comprehensive evaluation index system, and uses factor analysis and cluster analysis to evaluate and rank the competitiveness of China's 30 major coastal ports. 1. Introduction Port is the gathering point and hub of water and land transportation, the distribution center of import and export of industrial and agricultural products and foreign trade products, and the important node of logistics. With the continuous innovation of transportation mode and the rapid development of science and technology, ports play an increasingly important role in driving the economy, with increasingly rich functions and more important status and role. Meanwhile, the competition among ports is also increasingly fierce. In recent years, with the rapid development of China's economy and the promotion of "the Belt and Road Initiative", China's coastal ports have also been greatly developed. China has more than 18,000 kilometers of coastline, with superior natural conditions. With the introduction of the policy of reformation and opening, the human conditions are also excellent.

  • Polity and Governance
    www.gradeup.co www.gradeup.co Polity and Governance J&K govt declares actions under Roshni Act 'null and void Why in the news? • The Jammu and Kashmir government has declared the actions taken under the Jammu and Kashmir State Land (Vesting of Ownership to the Occupants) Act, 2001 or 'Roshni Act', as null and void. Reason behind this move • The Act, which was repealed in 2018 by then lieutenant governor Satya Pal Malik, was implemented with the aim of boosting the farming sector and "generating substantial revenue" for funding power projects. • However, the government stated that the Act had "failed to realise the desired objectives and there were also reports of misuse of some its provisions" due to allegations of corruption and an alleged failure to deliver the benefits it had been envisaged for. What is the Roshni Act? • The land-related law, popularly known as the Roshni Act, was brought into force by the Farooq Adbullah government in 2001. • The law aimed to grant ownership rights of public land to occupants. • Reportedly, 15.85 percent of the occupied land was approved for transfer of ownership rights. • The Act also sought the conferment of proprietary rights of around 20.55 lakh kanals of land (1, 2, 50 hectares) to the occupants. • Additionally, legislators hoped the Act would help generate resources to finance power projects. • Farmers who had been occupying State land were also given ownership rights for agricultural use. • The law initially set 1990 as the cut-off year for encroachment on State land, based on which ownership would be granted.

  • China's Port Investment
    CHINA’S PORT INVESTMENT: THE FLAG BEHIND THE TRADE JUNE 2019 Introduction Mathieu Duchâtel China’s corporate giant COSCO Shipping Ports Limited has titled its 2018 annual report “Strengthening Global Footprint”. Indeed, China’s investment in overseas ports is one of the most tangible incarnations of the country’s expanding global footprint. Because acquisitions of overseas ports happen simultaneously with a naval build-up of historical proportions and a sudden policy reversal on overseas bases, they raise questions regarding China’s strategic intentions. Should we think of port investment in terms of political control and influence or normal business relations? Does China intend to use military power to “securitize” the maritime trade that has ensured rapid growth and prosperity for the country’s coastal provinces since the launch of economic reforms at the end of the 1970s? The two largest companies that dominate Chinese overseas port acquisitions, COSCO and China Merchants Group, are driven by a logic of profit-making. In 2018, COSCO handled 118.8 million TEU at 36 ports worldwide, the equivalent of the combined contained throughput of Shanghai, Singapore, Shenzhen and Ningbo, the world’s four largest ports. 31.7 % of this total was managed in overseas ports, the equivalent of Singapore’s annual container traffic. The same year, China Merchants Group handled 20.66 million TEU in its overseas terminals, 18.9% of its total capacity. Because the revenues of terminal business fluctuate less than shipping, COSCO and China Merchants Group should be expected to continue their rapid international expansion. In fact, the largest share of Chinese overseas investment in ports has taken the form of minority stakes.
